Not voting is not throwing in the towel. It's refusing to play their game.
This is about the stupidest effing thing I've seen posted on here in a long time. How are you playing their game by voting against them? How long have you "held your nose and voted" for somebody that you didn't really want to vote for... but you 'had to"? And now even this is made moot since your vote will simply be nullified by the "vote" of some dead negro or a mexican or someone who doesn't even exist. So let's all just lay down and die.

In Starr County Texas , There are 8 registered Republicans, out of a population of 44,000 When i walk in to our School house to vote in every Local election , I know my vote won't count, and all the locals know I'm a Republican,and I am there to vote for who ever I chose to vote for, I don't give a Damn what they think. I feel it's my duty as an American Citizen to Vote. Rio7

As long as you think voting for pre-approved candidates is your only option, you're as good as dead anyway. And no, I don't have THE answer. At this point in time, I doubt there even is one.

"There are 8 registered Republicans, out of a population of 44,000"
I wonder how many of that 44,000 are getting welfare, food stamps and subsidized housing? I was on a deer lease near Christal City in Zavala County for a few years, We would go to the local HEB sometimes and I never saw anybody pay their groceries with cash or check.

I will vote at every chance I get. Just so I can say I never vote for democrats. The democrats may get voted in but it's not because I am shirking my duties. I can always say "I never voted for that POS".

Yes I will continue to vote in every election, Local, State and National.

I've lost heart in the whole process, but just like renewing my NRA membership every year, I'll keep on voting and feeling like it's a wasted effort.

Only an idiot would consider not voting as anything other than capitulation.

Probably not.
I've been disgusted with the uniparty for a long time and the stolen election makes it even less important.
Maybe another Trump will come along.
I'm probably sitting out for a while.

And what happens when you vote doesn't count. ? Even if we all come out and vote...Democrats have a full proof system that could help them win over and over and over again, They have a sure win for next election. Hate it or love it. So what happens when they carry out another fraud and win again ?

I’m going to do more to focus on voting and campaigning for local elections.
I’ll always vote in national elections but I really don’t think it will matter unless we can fix the system at a local level.

I have lost faith in the whole process, This past election hit me hard. I didn't feel bad that Trump last or that the democrats rigged it all. I felt bad because the FBI, and the Supreme court did nothing about it. If the supreme court is corrupt them then don't have a country, There's nothing left to protect or hold on to. We all knw what needs to happen but we are scare that the rest of the world would laugh at us. But guess what ? They are already laughing.

You know, since there is "no evidence" of fraud.
If you think your vote really matters from here on out, I feel sorry for you. Phuggin A! It's the weapon of choice for me right now and I'm gonna swing that SOB as often and as hard as I can. Don't recognize the OP, he has been hear a year and has 400 posts. Not a total newby, but a post like that could be perceived to be an attempt to get conservatives to not vote. We have an election next month, and we will be voting. There is a referendum to change the states constitution. To limit the governor's power to declare an emergency to 20 days. After 20, the legislature would have to continue it. Will the election be straight? No. I don't believe there has ever been a totally honest state/national election. Some nitwit somewhere will intentionally/accidently screw with something. Happens both ways. But again, it's the tool our ancestors the us to affect our will. And I'm dam sure going to use it. Hope I'm never in a fight with some of you all. If it looks bad, you'll offer BJ's in the bathroom to avoid a hit.

Yep. There's a few on here that fit that description.

Victroro, According to our county records from a couple of years ago, 43% on the 44,000 are on welfare, If you go to HEB here you will almost never see cash, if you walk out the back door of our HEB, you are 100 yards from Mexico, the parking lot will be full of cars and pickup's with Mexico plates,
The Mexicans, open a post office box on the U.S. side and collect their U.S free goody's . Rio7
